it pounds together all the dirt so over a period of time it becomes sedimentary rock
That process is called cementation.

during cementation, water deposits minerals that bind sediment particles together, which earth spheres are involved in this process?
The particles in the sediments are cemented as pressure squeezes out water. The dissolved minerals in the water, usually silica or calcite, then become solid (crystallize), tying the particles together.
it results in the compaction of rock fragments
It is the process of cementation that occurs during the lithification process.
